    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) tend to avoid dairy products to minimize abdominal pain and diarrhea. The aim of this study was to estimate the proportion of protein from dairy sources (PPDS) in mothers with and without IBD, and to explore the impact of PPDS on inadequate gestational weight gain (GWG) or small for gestational age (SGA) in IBD compared to non-IBD in the population-based Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa). METHODS: MoBa includes about 95,000 pregnant women recruited throughout Norway from 1999 to 2008. IBD phenotype and complications during pregnancy and delivery were ascertained. This study included 148 mothers with Crohn disease (CD) and 194 with ulcerative colitis and 68,858 non-IBD mothers. In mid-pregnancy participants answered a comprehensive semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire assessing diet since the start of pregnancy. PPDS was ranked in quartiles. The two lowest quartiles were merged and considered to represent the lowest of three PPDS groups. We used logistic regression analyses to model multivariate associations, adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS: The risk of belonging to the lowest PPDS group was twice as high in IBD mothers compared to non-IBD mothers (aOR = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.53, 2.67). Low compared to high PPDS strongly predicted inadequate GWG in CD (aOR = 4.22, 95% CI: 1.28, 13.92). Surprisingly, and in opposition to the non-IBD mothers, PPDS was positively associated with the risk of SGA in IBD mothers. IBD mother with low PPDS was associated with significantly lower risk of SGA than non-IBD mothers and IBD mothers with high PPDS (aOR = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.07, 0.50). The interaction term IBD/PPDS was the factor that linked SGA to IBD compared to non-IBD, and increased the association between IBD and SGA with a factor of three. CONCLUSION: This study shows that intake of dairy products is lower in IBD mothers than in non-IBD mothers, and further, that low intake of dairy products in IBD mothers is associated with reduced risk of SGA compared to non-IBD and IBD mothers with high PPDS.
